Microscope overview
The Axio Imager Z2 system is a fully motorized upright widefield microscope, which is ideal for quantitative analysis. Moreover, the system can perform structured illumination acquisition by means of ApoTome2.
The system is equipped with a CCD monochromatic digital camera (Axiocam HRm) and a CCD color digital camera (Axiocam HRc).
Stereological studies are also possible using StereoInvestigator software.
The ZEN Blue 2012 software fully controls the microscope and the cameras, allowing the acquisition of multidimensional images (multi-channel, time series, z-stack, tiles or multi-positions).
